4 /5 John Bernard: One of the earliest installations of the “Art in Public Places” program in Davis, California. It was a concept piece with spires originally covered with mylar reflective decals. Only minor problem was that the extreme heat of Davis fairly quickly disintegrated those plastic panels. I would estimate it lasted probably about 10 years – but the remainder of the metal pieces and spires still remain. City’s contribution unknown – also unknown as to whether not any type of warranty was extended by the artist as to how long the piece would be effective.
